In this brand new episode, we're celebrating 30 years since the release of this seminal Blur album. Join us as we travel back to the 90's and the rise of Britpop to see what this quartet of fresh faced Londoners did on their make or break third album, and why it still hits all the right notes three decades later.

Welcome to Further Listening, the series where we delve even deeper into the back catalogues of some of our favourite artists. We're kicking things off with the band who inspired the Track By Track podcast and the name of this series... It's Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe AKA Pet Shop Boys. This series was first released as a Patreon exclusive, however we're now sharing the episodes across all podcasting platforms AND we're bringing it bang up to date with some additional choices. Let us know your thoughts on the episode and our picks on the socials @trackbytrackuk - and if you haven't already please do leave us a rating and review.

We're back with our first episode of 2024! And this year we're doing things a little bit differently. Each month we're going to bring one updated episode previously released on Patreon, one updated episode from our Patreon exclusive series: Further Listening AND at least one brand new episode to all podcasting platforms. This week we're continuing the 50th anniversary celebrations of ABBA's Eurovision win by celebrating the album that started it all. Ring Ring was released a year before Eurovision, before ABBA were known as ABBA, but still features fan favourites and some real oddities. Do let us know what you think to the episode and the album, and if you haven't already please do leave us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts. Thanks for listening - it's great to be back!

Surprise! We couldn't not mark the occasion...

The collection is made up of six experimental lengthy numbers, with a much heavier focus on dance music, and on this episode we're going through them track by track.
